Report: West Ham United keen to beat competition to signature of Brentford striker Neal Maupay

According to Football Insider, West Ham United are interested in securing the services of Brentford striker Neal Maupay this summer.

The 22-year-old scored 25 league goals and assisted eight others in 43 games for the Championship side last term, and is attracting a lot of suitors from the Premier League.

Aston Villa, Sheffield United and Brighton and Hove Albion are all keen on Maupay, while he is also on the radar of clubs in Spain.

West Ham need a quality striker next season as manager Manuel Pellegrini looks to lead them to Europe, and have identified a couple of targets as they look to secure a replacement for Marko Arnautovic.
